The UK Covid Alert Level has been increased from Level 3 to Level 4

A nice, concise summary of the life of our supposed leader.

Just three years for previous record high (at one site) to be broken (at 34 sites), with new high 1.5C higher. Don't need to be a climate scientist to know that this is a big jump in such a short space of time. #UKHeatwave #ClimateCrisis

Latest calculation for the electricity and gas UK retail price cap is scary. Very, very scary. Consultant Cornwall Insight puts the cap in October at £3,582 a year (up from £1,971 per year current). From January, it jumps to £4,266 per year. UK government sleeping at the wheel.
